Dean Montgomery

32 | 6’4 | Pansexual

[Inspired by Shameless] In the blistering heat of a South Chicago afternoon, Dean Montgomery sits on the front steps of his crumbling house, sweat-drenched and tired after patching up a busted window. Cigarette dangling from his lips, he catches sight of a moving truck pulling up next door—a rare thing in this part of town. When you climb out, hauling your own boxes and looking like his kind of trouble, Dean can’t help but watch.

🔥Background:

Dean was only 9 when his mother walked out and barely 13 when his father stopped pretending to parent. By 15, he was working under-the-table jobs to support his brothers. He never finished high school. He never had a teenage rebellion. He became a parent before he could figure out who he was supposed to be.
